    What Supplements Should I be Taking?

    I suggest not asking here, but go to your physician and get some blood work, it might be a deficit of XYZ. My wife had been tired a lot lately, got her blood checked. Because of her diet she got a b12 deficit. Suplimenting and adjusting her diet worked well.

    Cohibas

    No one than habanos does a small cigar better imho! Not only mille fleurs (which i love), but also other PC'S like Bolivar and Ramon Allones, I also love HUpmann Half Coronas.

    Cohibas

    While the question might be a bit dead asked in september 2022, ill still bite. I think Habanos Cohibas (not talking the General Cigars Habanos names brands, those are not available in Europe) are not worth their money and never where. A Siglo costs 30 to 40 euro's, not to mention other Siglos...

    Real Bad at Lighting Cigars

    How far where you into the cigar at the point of the picture? If you where in like 2 inches you cant blame that on the lighting. Can be a construction issue you can correct easily. I use torch lighters for cigars and prefer single flames to be more precise. I light the lighter and move the...

    Why do We Smoke Pipes?

    Tobacco without grabbing for cigarettes and not costing a arm and leg like cigars.

    Straight Virginia's

    My first encounter with VA was MB Virginia #1. Me being a pipedummy I smoked it like the english and burley based blend I tried. Got bitten like sticking your face in a wasps nest. The "ephiphany" came with capstan blue and OGS (the whole yes/no perique discussion, for me there is no perique)...

    Do You Prefer Briar, Meerschaum, or No Preference?

    Meerschaum for me in general, but i've had certain blends (especially Va/VaPer blends) that taste better in briars.

    @telescopes have fun, been a while I have been near the canals in Amsterdam. Smoked H&H Virginia Spice in the one year meer. Tobacco was courtesy of SS2021 @cosmicfolklore , while I haven't smoked it fresh "aged" it is very nice.

    The Pencil Shank Pipe Hazard (for purchasers)

    Great info George, thanks for sharing. Curious to see if you can pull it off to put a tube in it. I love long straight pipes, but I think I'm way to clumsy for a pencil shank. I'm allready very carefull with this long-ish Lovat I have.

    One year meer challenge

    Hi guys, hope you are all well. So there is no real progression on the pipe, as I have barely smoked it. Maybe 2 or 3 times. I've been sick, slammed with work (where I can not smoke, at least not inside), family stuff has been busy.... But spring hit finally after a obnoxious wet March, I fixed...

    ***What Are You Smoking, January 2023?***

    If they appeal to you, you should. Same with smoking one pipe for one year. Smoke #45 in the one year meer was Tordenskjold Slices. First time cubecutting (with scissors) and gravity fill a flake which was a succes, burned really well and took a first light quite quick.
